What Jev Means for Software Testing: Your AI Agent Is Thinking Too Hard

Watch an AI agent run a regression test sometime. Really watch it. It lands on a login page. It reads the entire page structure: every element, every attribute, every nested div someone added in 2019 that nobody has dared to remove since. Then it reasons. It weighs its options. It explains to itself, at some length, that the button labeled "Sign in" is probably the one that signs you in. And then, finally, it clicks. Now multiply that by every step, in every test, in every regression run, every night.

MCP vs. API: What's the Difference and When to Use Each

An API is a defined way for one piece of software to request data or actions from another. The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that gives AI agents a consistent way to discover and use tools and data sources, so they don't need a custom integration for each one. The short version: MCP doesn't replace APIs. Most MCP servers call APIs behind the scenes. What MCP changes is who the interface is designed for. APIs are designed for developers who read documentation and write code.

AGNTCon + MCPCon Europe 2026: five takeaways

Two days at RAI Amsterdam (17–18 September), nearly a hundred sessions, and energy throughout the hallways. AGNT Con + MCPCon Europe is the Agentic AI Foundation's flagship event under the Linux Foundation, and this year it consolidated the European MCP content that previously lived at MCP Dev Summit Europe. If you care about MCP, this was the place to be.

AI Workspace + Playwright: Deploy Playwright tests from Jira requirements

Connect AI Workspace, the Tricentis Quality Agent, and Playwright so a Jira requirement generates test cases and runs them as an unattended web test. In this walkthrough, you will see how a ticket drives test case generation, triggers a Playwright run over MCP, and returns a pass/fail report to Jira. Key highlights.

SeaLights for ABAP: Mapping SAP Risk and Closing Test Gaps

Pair SAP change tracking with automatic test mapping to know exactly what a transport touches, and what still needs coverage. In this walkthrough, Kateryna Serdinsky, Product Marketing Manager at Tricentis, demonstrates how to set up a test cycle, run risk-based impact analysis, and close coverage gaps in SeaLights for ABAP.

[Webinar] Delivering HIPAA X12 Compliance with EDI Agent

Fixing 834 enrollment files, rejected 837 claims, and HIPAA X12 validation errors can consume hours every week. Every new trading partner or requirement can mean more mapping, validation, testing, and troubleshooting for healthcare EDI teams. Astera EDIConnect helps take that work off your team. Teams can automate workflows that parse and validate HIPAA X12 transactions in a no-code, drag and drop interface. Its built-in EDI Agent helps teams create and adapt flows faster, without relying on custom code or specialized EDI resources.

Introducing ARIA

What if you could build a data pipeline by just describing it in plain English? Sudais sits down with Maha, Astera's AI evangelist and one of the thought leaders behind ARIA, to talk about Astera's helper agents: what they are, why we built them, and where they're heading. ARIA is a set of specialized agents for Astera products like Centerprise and ReportMiner. Describe what you want, like migrating data from a SQL database to Snowflake, and the agent configures the pipeline for you.

Connect Bolt.new to On-Prem SQL Server Without Exposing Sql Server to the Internet

Connect Bolt to an on-prem SQL Server database without opening a single firewall port or handing over a database password. In this video I put DreamFactory in front of a SQL Server database on my local network, generate a REST API from it, lock that API down with a read-only role and a scoped API key, then I have Bolt build a live delivery operations dashboard on top of it. Bolt calls the API from a Bolt server function, so the key never reaches the browser.

The Campaign Brief Agent That Saved Weeks of Work

Every campaign launch comes with the same overhead: write the brief, rewrite it for creative, rewrite it again for email ops, digital, and whoever else needs a version of it. Multiply that by every campaign your team runs, and weeks disappear before the work even starts. In this clip from the Thought Tank: Marketing in the Age of Agents, ThoughtSpot SVP Marketing EMEA Katie Marcham and CMO Micheline Nijmeh share the agent that changed that.
